I've had nothing but trouble with my internet connection all weekend and even though 'im indoors thought I was being stupid, I moved it back. It's been perfect for the last hour.
Did I 'mend' it or was it just coincidence? If I mended it why?

Probably a bit of verdigris on the connection, sometimes unplugging things and then plugging back in can scrape some of the verdigris off. Slight trace of moisture in the air can cause it.
Telephone connections are a favourite place for verdigris to grow, especially on copper wires and brass connections.
Retlaw.
